nave been afflicted for three years, caused
by over-work too soon after confinement.
My kidneys became seriously affected;
cOIld not retain my urine day nor night.
It was high colored, thick and bloody.
My monthlies had left altogether for four
Seen months, during which time / was
colfncd to my bed with beating in right
ovarics. The discharge from the womb
was so offensive no one could stay in the
room. The urine continued bloody, with
pain in voiding it, and when in bed would
pass from me in my sleep. have had
three doctors attending me regularly, ono
for four months, one Of the others ons
whole summer, and the third all winter.
We hal two others in consultation with
them, and used twenty bottles OF differ
ent kinds of patent medicines, all to. no
good. , then got a bottle OF PERUNA,
and before l had three fourths Of the hot
tie taken l quit wetting the bed and could
retain the urine sufficient to attend church,
which had not done for three years,
and my monthlies came back as natural
as ever; indeed, considered myself q
we'll woman again. Since that time have
had pneumonia. My confidence in Pa
RuNA was so great that did not send for
\ doctor. I followed the directions in
your oils of Life" and am over it, as we'll
as can be expected Of one so delicate as
have been. Others in my neighborhood
had the same disease, and among them
we're strong men, and had the best physi-
clans, and yet died, while I sailed through
m safety on PERUNA and MANALIN. 1
sincerely believe, and would say to all the
afflicted in the wide world, that PERUNA
and MASALTN are the only two medicines
that any one needs in any disease, if used
as directed in your book entitled 1.-THE Ills
OF Life"
J. E. Fleming, publisher Of the New
Dominion, Morgantown, VIVA, writes:
"Some months since, received some Of
your medicine in exchange for advertis-
ing. My wiie has taken five bottles Of il,
and has derived great benefit from IT,"
Mr.. M. G. Pershing, Bradenville, Pa,
writes: My wife has been using PERU.
MA for some time for weak lungs and liv.

doing her great good. Has used only one

JUSTICE NC DDS DEAD.

WASHINGTON, May a. = Mr.. Justice
Woods. of the United States Supreme
Court. die few minutes after - o'clock
this afternoon So ne of the physicians
said this N orning tn 1t the immediate cause
of his death was quick consumption. The
family of Justice Woods desire to have the
funeral services at his old home in Ohio
He died at boarding house. where he had
obtained temporary quarters. The United
States Supreme Court will adjourn on
Monday in respect to his memory.
Justice Weeds was born in Newark, o.
A graduate of Yale of 1916, he was admitted
q member of the Ohio Legislature i'll 1857,
and wSs chosen Speaker of the House.
After tive terms of this service he entered
the army as Lieutenant Colonel of an
Ohio regiment, nd was promoted to be
Brevet Major General. At the close
of the war he took up his resi-
dence in Alabama, where he was
mustered out of the service. In
1868 he was chosen State Chancellor of
Alabama After two years of this service
he was appointed Circuit Judge of the
United States Court for the Fifth District.
He had been friend OF Mr.. Hayes IN
early life, and when Mr.. Hayes became
President he appointed Judge Woods to the
Supreme Bench in 1881.
Already the names of three prominent
Democrats are mentione as among tle
persons from whom the successor of jus
tice Woods will be chosen. They are At
torney- General Garland, ex-Representatlve
J. Randolph Tucker, who is conceded to
be the ablest lawyer who has been Con-
gress from he South since the W. r, and ex
Gov. Hof dly of Ohio. Some OF the friends
of Mr. Garland and of Mr.. Tucker say that
they know there would be no opposition in
the Senate to the confirmation of either OF
them, although no information is given as
to the authority upon which such positive
assuranc s are based, It is pretty certain,
on the contrary, that there would be de-
termined opposition to both.

Joining the gallows as early as 10 o'clock.
When the word passed around, about IL
o'clock, that the final hour had indeed ar
rived. mems faces grew pale, and the hum
of excitement passed through the crowd.
The rsttltng of chairs. tables and benches
continued for several minutes. but BY HOS
there began to fall hush. and conversa-
ton among the crowd sank almost to a
whisper. The bare, whitewashed walls
formed a painful contrast with the dark,
brown gallows. with its four noosed
ropes hanging ominously near the floor.
It was exactly 11:5O O'clock when Chief
Batliff Cahtll entered the corridor and stood
beneath the gallows. He requested in
solemn tones that the gentlemen present
would removes their hats Instantly every
head was barred Then the tramp, tramp OF
many footsteps was heard resounding from
the central corridor, and the crowd in front
Of the gallows knew that the condemned
men had begun the march of death. The
slow, steady march sounded nearer and
nearer. The anarchists were within few
feet Of the scatfold There was pause.
The condemned men were about to mount
the stairway leading to the last platform from
which they would ever speak. Step by step,
they steadily mounted the stairway and again
there was another slight pause. Every eve
was bent upon the metallic angle around
which the four wretched victims were ex-
pected to make their appearance. A mo-
ment later the curiosity was rewarded.

ton.

The returns from Dakota are very tncom-
plete and unsatisfactory, but enough have
been received to show that division has car
ried. q 80 that prohibition has been carried in
four fifths of the counties in the territory.
The vote was very light, and in many
counties no returns have been received.
therefore nothing but an estimate can DO
made The annexed table gives the vote -
far received with estimates in the counties
where the returns are incomplete or from
which no returns nave been sent The totals
show that the majority for division in the
territory is 1881. and for prohibition H.
O31. These figures will no doubt be con-
siderably changed by the official count
North Dakota votes against division
with majority of 2,O4O, and
South Dakota votes for division
with a majority of 1922. The table
shows that only SIX coun ties have given .
majority against prohibition, but this will no
doubt be altered when more complete re-
turns are in. Hugh J. Campbell estimates
the majority fo- division in South Da-
kota at 10000, but this is wide

Of Fargo estimates the majority for division
at 10000, and says so per cent Of the terri
tory is for prohibition. He further says that
North Dakota has given a majority for divis-

not show:

$500 and $4,000 a year. and while
the least is as little as could be ex-
